Pieces for the Right Hand Only
on: May 13, 2012, 07:28:18 PM
Hi all,
Have sadly ended up with tendonitis in my left arm and have been instructed not to use it for about 6 weeks. Naturally the thought of spending so long away form the piano kills me so I am just wondering if anyone knows of any decent pieces for the right hand alone?
Thanks for all suggestions!

The masterpiece tell the performer what to do, and not the performer telling the piece what it should be like, or the cocomposer what he ought to have composed.

A good way to give yourself tendonitis in the right arm too.

I have a bad case of DeQuervain's tendinitis in my thumb, which spread into the tendon of my index finger.
You might try what I'm doing: taking music which has been written for two hands, and re-writing it for your right hand.
Or, take music which has been written for the violin, viola or cello and transcribe it for the right-hand alone. (If you transcribe viola music, your alto clef reading ability will improve dramatically!)
Since it's going to be about six months before I have my left hand back, this gives me all sorts of opportunities to create a body of literature!
